Requirements

  • 8–10 years of agency design leadership, with a portfolio showcasing social-led, earned-media, and broadcast work that drove headlines or accolades.
  • Deckcraft mastery—full-bleed visuals, concise copy, and storytelling that makes complex ideas feel effortless.
  • Exceptional self-management: you juggle stakeholder inputs, champion a clear creative POV, and keep collaboration friction-free.
  • A collaborator’s spirit and “adult-in-the-room” presence—able to mentor teammates, push back constructively, and align cross-functional partners.
  • Deep real-time social fluency and cultural trend-spotting; data-curious enough to speak ROI when it matters.
  • Basic animation/motion-graphics and video-editing proficiency to tackle light production requests.

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end creation of full-bleed, minimal-copy decks in PowerPoint and Google Slides—pitching earned-media, social-led, and broadcast campaigns for clients and new business.
  • Lead and collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams (art directors, writers, designers), driving insight, storytelling, and polish while acting as the senior design voice.
  • Self-manage multiple briefs—balancing rapid-turn real-time social activations, strategic pitch decks, and proactive passion projects—so every deliverable lands on time and on point.
  • Spot cultural and social trends and weave them into design solutions that break through, setting the bar for craft and ongoing innovation.
  • Handle light animation and video-editing tasks (e.g., CapCut, basic After Effects), supporting in-house production needs with efficiency and flair.
